Measurement of the decays B->phi K and B->phi K*
- SLAC
The authors have observed the decays B {yields} {phi}K and {phi} K* in a sample of over 45 million B mesons collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II collider. The measured branching fractions are {beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {phi}K{sup +}) = (7.7{sub -1.4}{sup +1.6} {+-} 0.8) x 10{sup -6}, {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {phi}K{sup 0}) = (8.1{sub -2.5}{sup + 3.1} {+-} 0.8) x 10{sup -6}, {Beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {phi}K*{sup +}) = (9.7{sub -3.4}{sup +4.2} {+-} 1.7) x 10{sup -6}, and {Beta}(B{sup 0} {yields} {phi}K*{sup 0}) = (8.6 {sub -2.4}{sup +2.8} {+-} 1.1) x 10{sup -6}. We also report the upper limit {Beta}(B{sup +} {yields} {phi}{pi}{sup +}) < 1.4 s 10{sup -6} (90% CL).
